Convert anything to Minecraft Blocks with BlockBlender 1.4

[@paulnovacek3715]

This is a game changer. I know model converters existed before, but never with this level of convenience and customization. Can't wait to try this out.

[@jordnchn7907]

crazy for builders, i personally think this method for generating custom trees is HUGE no more custom tree dipository map file, now i can just import a tree model from ANY cg or 3d model asset and scale and convert into minecraft, that alone for me is BIG!

This is incredible. I feel like you could recreate entire game worlds with this. It'd be amazing to see the world spaces of skyrim, oblivion, morrowind, or any game recreated in minecraft using this.

[@grimsage5809]

Not to mention how this could improve build times on the 1:1 recreation of the world in minecraft project tbh

[@Grimhavens]

Most of the big builds have always been made like this. Like that galaxy build ever one was freaking about last year.

[@8bit_pineapple]

I've used vowel converters in the past for making minecraft builds from 3d files. I don't think they're quite suitable for that usecase, since to get a good amount of detail requires the buildings to be scaled too much -- and if you don't the buildings don't look great. For key megastructures though they are really good e.g. if you wanted to make the world from Elden Ring, converting the Erd tree to a blocky format would work well, but then for individual buildings that arnt massive a good minecraft player will always produce much better results making use if half slabs, stairs, and weird things like anvils, extinguished camp fires, and other non conventional blocks to give details.

[@SH4DOWPH4NTOM17]

Always tried to replicate morrowind stuff but didn’t knew how and gave up during terraforming, this surely would make it not only easier but make it look a lot better!

[@PAGRlO]

Keep in mind you would have to create it anyway

This could drastically help with build the earth project

[@user-rx2vp5yj1m]

Bro, when I saw this cave structure generated in this somewhat random way, all I could think of was a maze. It would be awesome if you could generate entire dungeons randomly just with the effect of noise; with secret rooms and lurking mobs, just like in isekai RPGs and animes. Anyway, great project, I'll test it in the near future.

[@lulboiking5806]

Wow!! This add on was already great but now it's even better!! Thank you so much for this!! Its a lot of fun to play around with!!😊

This is really cool

[@patahgaming]

Very useful for landscape or dungeon generating... Since it can put unique structures

[@FoxoticTV]

This is huge for level design, there has never been an engine editor to reliably build large worlds with source control. This makes it possible

Imagine how this could be used for Build the Earth.

[@toxo000]

this is crazy, i’m not a minecraft builder nor a blender guru but my first thought was on big servers who pays for minecraft builders to create their worlds, and with this people could easily expand their buildings and use mods like worldedit to put even more details into it, possibilities are just crazy

This is pretty nuts for game development also if you think about it because you essentially have the access to turn anything into your own voxelised model

There is a complicated way. You can convert the schematics to a command and put those into the nbt of an npc for a build button. Horion client users would spawn builds on realms this way.

@@epicspartanryan9457 Dont remember fully I used a schematic to command converter(with a web demo) on some random Github repo. And had to do a lot of complicated notepad++ replaces to make the commands compatible with bedrock and also to put it in NBT format for .give in Horion. But since giving items on realms and vanilla servers was patched I kind of lost interest. Though still some interest in bedrock since OBJ skins still work with Horion. As a bonus there was something interesting some people used for images called Pixelstacker*(as it uses a stained glass layer*) seems a bit underrated compared to how spritecraft was.
